Fallout 3, Shogun 2, Rabbit Burn, etc
Command and Conquer: Red Alert
All hail “Hell March”
First thing that came to mind when seeing the post!
Same! Usually have to scroll way too far to find Red Alert. Guess that’s a sign that the Fediverse is full of us old folks…
Dude also, the RA3 menu theme goes SO HARD
I don’t know what the actual lyrics are, and I never want to know. to me they will forever be “we will stand, wake… UP”
Dun nun nuhnuhnuh. FEE FII FUUMM
I have this as an alarm :D
DuckTales moon theme
Mega man 2
Doom
All bangers.
In the unlikely event you’re unaware, half the songs in Doom are MIDI knockoffs of thrash metal hits. Particularly egregious examples: Slayer’s “South of Heaven” and “Behind The Crooked Cross,” Alice In Chains’s’s’ “Them Bones,” the quiet bits of Pantera’s “This Love.”
Also that moon level was hard as balls.
Subnautica
VICE CITY. First, nostalgia for all the 80s music, then nostalgia for playing Vice City. Double whammy
My mates Dad has a song in that game!
StarCraft and God Hand
Jet Set Radio
Ninja Gaiden (original). I’m looking at you!
Total Annihilation, Rome Total War, Morrowind…
Morrowind still has the best version of that recurring theme. Understated and spacious.
Shame I can’t hear it in my head without inserting the inventory’s weirdly sharp sound effects. blicK blicK schlorp shVING blblorbl blicK chkuu
Streets of Rage 2 is still a banger.
Armored Core 3
Wipeout Pure
GTA Vice CityGravity rush & Kingdom hearts

Playing F-Zero lately and so happy they kept those bangers
Had this recently with starcraft brood war. What an absolutely slammin soundtrack.
Radio free zerg
I played it pirated and ripped. Never knew it had music until muuuuuch later
I felt personally attacked calling Shogun 2 old! (implies I’m getting old too lol)
But seriously, that’s probably my favourite total war game. It is not broken like most TW games and well balanced. There are a lot more variety and flair to it as a game with the avatar system and grooming the generals. The graphics are also beautiful and you could still run it easy enough on a crappy or low spec computer.
Agreed! I still periodically start up Shogun 2 campaigns. The music plays a part in that
When the ring loads…
